My view of the trophy presentation. Just close enough to make out Nantz’s smug. Try to contain your jealousy.

My buddy and DCSN co-writer DixieNormess came through with a free ticket to yesterday’s game. First 30 minutes: WOOOOOOOOO! The next 28: HNNNNNNNGGGGHHHHH. All 60 minutes: [A noise approximating my balls freezing.] A couple Jets fans left at halftime, including these two old fat guys sitting behind us grumbling that fans shouldn’t be cheering because “we haven’t been saying anything.” Just a few less people barking in his ear during the second half comeback attempt.

Not watching on TV, I missed the two actual enduring moments from this game: Sanchez wiping boogers on Mark Brunell and Rashard Mendenhall smearing his seed on The Ben’s backside.

Watching the NFC title game in a nearby bar, I spotted this guy in what I can only assume is a customized Dirty Sanchez jersey.

One of his buddies told him a bunch of Steelers fans were burning a piece of Jets merch on the patio, so he storms outside and proves the fortitude of Jersey to Yinzer Nation by standing in fire pit a half dozen times. Fireman Ed certainly does not endorse such antics.

Oh, and there was a guy tailgating in a pink ape suit. I dubbed him Easter Ape. Color coordination alone dictates that this should be my lifemate, but I’ll defer to Mendy on this one.

Nice seeing Mendenhall giving The Ben a taste of his own medicine. But seriously, hoo boy…..

Even without the swearing, reckless driving under the influence, terrible decisions involving 8 different women, and flying around like airplanes, the Jets are assholes. Brunell’s like a father who got guilted into chaperoning his kid’s overnight field trip.

/”Slapdick” still a terrific insult

When I saw how up your seats were I wondered if you had to duck when they did the pre game fly over?

That’s right where I sat for the Backyard Brawl. It was about 20 degrees warmer and my balls have just now thawed. Lovely wind up there.

BAM BITCHES! Beautiful. Just beautiful. Hopefully tWWL or Faux Spurts (home of the Troy/Joe humpfest) will hire Rex to pimp the game

There’s nothing in this world I want more than a version of that Phil Collins video with the Ben and Mendenhall.

Sanchez and Big Ben hit the town afterwards to find some co-eds to knock their junk around, and then get knocked around for their troubles

“Mike Tomlin had team listening to Phil Collins song in the dark last night”

I figured the song would’ve been “Invisible Touch”.

Maybe it was a Genesis song.

Easter Ape is gayer than AIDS. Unless it’s a chick in there, which is pretty cool. Unless she’s ugly, which is pretty lame. Unless she’s REALLY ugly, which makes the suit an improvement. Knowing Pittsburgh, I’m going with the last one.

Agreed sir, I’m having serious sulk withdrawal and its the perfect day for Chicago hate. Even better now that we’ve got all the fun pics of bears fans smiting cutlersulk jerseys with fire. Yes Chicago, bask in the glow of all those burning #6’s. You have my condolences and a hearty BEN “HAARF HARF, DERPITY DERRP”.

I would like to also make my request for some Cutlersulk. I’m trying to figure out if the shot of Cutler on an exercise bike that I remember was just part of some feverish dream fantasy that I had.

I am surprised Sanchez could actually find his nose. I half expected him to miss and poke himself in the eye.

Cromartie's Innumerous Basterds

Made it to the game — I eBayed a ticket in Section 115, fifth row (Jets sideline, closed end end zone), so I had a nearly front-row view of Rongrastname’s safety. It was my first visit to Heinz, and for the most part I really liked the stadium, concessions, and general layout, but I was wondering about a few things: (1) Why are there only 66k seats? The Steelers are among the all-time most popular NFL teams, surely they could sell out a 75-80k stadium; (2) Why is there an open end? Is the view of downtown that necessary? Put the damn screen somewhere else; (3) Pissing troughs in the men’s rooms – just gross, man.

As a longtime Jets season ticket holder and now PSL owner, I still do not understand how the fuck the Jets and Giants spent $1.2 billion dollars to get a stadium only marginally better than the one it replaced, especially after visiting Lucas Oil and Heinz for the past two AFCC and seeing nicer places that were put up for a whole lot less (even adjusting for inflation). I know building in the NY/NJ area is more expensive, but come on.

This game was complete absolute SHIT! The Jets had no right to be in this game they had deep pockets is the ONLY reason they were worth anything this year. They won’t have most of them in the next couple of years. Then they can go back to what they are good at being the Patriots Bitch.
